Title: You thought YOUR day was bad...
Post by: Lotsokids on December 14, 2011, 05:11:44 AM
I took these photos of a vehicle that was hit by a rocket near the rear wheel and some small arms fire into the windows. This truck was heavily armored, but I'm sure it was VERY exciting inside the vehicle during the attack!

The armour did its job, luckily for everyone inside. Amazing photo, we don't see too much of these to really appreciate what you guys put up with over there.

What's the story with the truck?  Did that happen in Hungary?  I'm not really current on events over there, but I didn't think that armored trucks and rocket fire were common.
Is it an Hungarian military truck?  I don't recognize the insignia on the door. 
Damn cool truck, nonetheless.  I wish I had one.

It happened in the "sand box." That's all I know. As for the truck, it was going through Hungary back to it's home country (which I'm not sure) to be sold or scrapped.
